ANN ARBOR—The University of Michigan’s Ross School of Business begins accepting applications this summer for its new Master of Management degree program.

The latest addition to the school’s specialized degree programs, the 10-month, full-time program that starts in July 2014 is aimed at students looking to add a business degree to a liberal arts, science or engineering undergraduate degree.

Through rigorous study in core subjects such as accounting, finance, and marketing, students will learn the building blocks of business — with a focus on analytical frameworks and tools — along with the communications and teamwork skills needed to succeed. The curriculum allows students to take at least two electives, adding flexibility and customization to the degree.

“Ross Master of Management graduates will head to the job market with a big advantage – a graduate degree from one of the world’s best business schools,” said Alison Davis-Blake, Ross School dean. “In 10 months’ time they will master core business fundamentals to create a powerful, multidisciplinary combination of skills and knowledge valued in today’s job market.”

Students in the Master of Management program will benefit from the hallmarks of a Ross business degree including action-based learning experiences, award-winning faculty, centers and institutes, global research leaders, career services, and high-caliber peers.

The application process will open later this summer, with early deadline applications due in November. The program is open to candidates with a non-business undergraduate degree and no more than two years of full-time, post-graduate work experience.
